Och-Ziff Investigated for Possible Violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act

On March 18, 2014, Och-Ziff disclosed that in 2011 the company began receiving subpoenas from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the U.S. Department of Justice as part of an investigation into possible violations of U.S. bribery laws. According to the disclosure, the investigation relates to a 2007 investment made by a foreign sovereign wealth fund in an Och-Ziff fund, in violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. In addition, the subpoenas sought information concerning investments by certain Och-Ziff funds in several companies in Africa. Och-Ziff acknowledged that the investigation is ongoing and that an "adverse outcome could have a material effect" on its business operations and financial condition. Och-Ziff shares fell 3.5% on March 19, 2014.

In light of this news, Robbins LLP is investigating whether Och-Ziff's board of directors breached its fiduciary duties to the company and its shareholders by failing to implement adequate internal controls to ensure compliance with applicable law.
